can’t believe that in 2022 umps still fall for the “yank the ball 8 inches toward the plate” move. if the catcher moves it THAT much he prob knows it wasn’t a strike dummy.
that might be the game that ends any optimistic hope of being decent. giving that one away followed by going like 4-10 in this next brutal stretch and being 9 games out seems pretty possible.
well down 1 with 2 outs in the 9th at least wisdom is up with a chance to go deep and tie it. oops the slappiest hitter in baseball pinch hit for him in the 7th nevermind.
